To post a comment you must log in.
Can you please try editing the grub command-line during boot and adding
dis_ucode_ldr
as an extra kernel boot parameter?
If this allows the machine to boot then it shows the issue is specific to the microcode but if not then this is likely a kernel issue - also given that we ship the same microcode in all releases I suspect that this is likely a kernel issue but it would be good to confirm this. If this does turn out to look like a kernel issue then this bug should be reassigned against the linux package.
